Welcome to the MNRC

Breaking News - New AKC Title for Master National Retrievers: The MNRC board approved a proposal from the AKC for a new title for our retrievers. The proposal includes awarding the title MNH to dogs passing three Master National Events (current Hall of Fame requirements) and includes a provision to make the title retroactive for dogs currently meeting the criteria. The proposal goes to the AKC board and its approval is anticipated by the first of next year.  For details, contact your MNRC regional representatives, an article will appear in the next Newsletter.

And a big thank you to Mia DiBenedetto and Jack Combs for volunteering for the PR/Communications Committee. I think everyone who was at last year’s event know Mia and Jack – the Poodle folks! Their talented Poodle made history last year by being the first to qualify at a Master National. They are perfect for this job – Mia works for NBC news and Jack is a professor at Brown University. They have already made huge contributions via the MNRC website, Facebook,  and Twitter. Join me in welcoming them to the MNRC team.
